Birdman: Jay-Z Ain’t Number One
Baby recently sat down with TropicalTV‘s Luke Monaghan while he was in London to discuss Lil Wayne’s album release, jewelry, the interviewer joining YM/CM, as well as the fact that the #1 Hottest MC on MTV’s list was Jay-Z, who Lil Wayne was initially okay with taking second place to, to which Birdman said “Jay-Z ain’t number one, fuck that.”
To that, I say:
October 19th, 2009 at 4:32 pm
What Baby is trying to say is…to be number 1 you have to kiss me on the mouth
October 19th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Birdman gotta open his eyes (n) Lil Wayne is whack now….he’s not trying as hard as he used to, to make good music
October 19th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Dead.
October 19th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
Birdman,
Check D’Wayne’s last name he’ll Always be # 2!
October 19th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
Lil wayne should not even be on that list….who’s talking about him recently? (n)
October 19th, 2009 at 4:37 pm
Brapple..
October 19th, 2009 at 4:37 pm
I mean what else is he suppose to say wayne’s his son,he gota ride
October 19th, 2009 at 4:38 pm
*chirp*
October 19th, 2009 at 4:42 pm
“C’mon son, get the fuck outta here with that corny shit. What the fuck is wrong wit chu.”
October 19th, 2009 at 4:56 pm
even though jay makes most of his money from other investments, he still has more money than wayne. he’s the top rapper on forbes list. if its just about money, jay makes a lot more than wayne.
October 19th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
did this nigga just try and say Cash Money makes more than Jay-Z???? THIS NIGGA DONE LOST HIS MARBLES IN NEVERLAND
October 19th, 2009 at 4:58 pm
Wayne was at 6# on Forbes Cash Kings List this year.He made while 18 mil, While Jay made 35 Million.Even Akon made more that wayne, So what the fuck is this bitch talkin about??
October 19th, 2009 at 4:58 pm
i havent heard anybody checkin for birdman since like 03
October 19th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
I don’t like either one of them. Fuk jay and weezy wit babys dick! Haha yea I said it! Since when was hip hop about $$
October 19th, 2009 at 5:14 pm
This old ass faggot is delusional.
October 19th, 2009 at 5:14 pm
birdman got to be 100 years old, an jay z is number one dont hate he is the elvis of hip hop no no the beatles no no the best wayne is ok but his ryhmes are iffie as a muthafucka
October 19th, 2009 at 5:28 pm
Let’s not get alll in a tizzy…..Birdman is that guys father and shit…so yea he is going to say that…… You can say Jay wasn’t number 1 but you have to have a GOOD reason………. Noooo way those CM guys make more money than Jay-Z….Didn’t that guy do $150 million with that Roc Nation deal??……TWO…..Sure Wayne makes like a million half-ass verses……But are all those half-ass verses better than Jay’s verses?? Quality over Quantity sir
October 19th, 2009 at 5:30 pm
Give me a break. What preposterously LAME comments from Birdman!
You ARE your music, and your music is YOU. If you live a shallow, hollow and materialistic life — your music is bound to reflect that. Thankfully for Birdman, we live in a pretty shallow, hollow and materialistic society, so a lot of his stuff resonates, and I know he sells a lot. But that doesn’t mean anything.
Birdman doesn’t get it. You can buy all the possessions in the world and still be poor. And yet, some of the poorest people lead and live the richest lives…
October 19th, 2009 at 5:47 pm
I understand he is Lil’ Wayne so called father (whole different discussion right there) but his reasoning for hos statement is LUDICROUS. How are you trying to put an album out and say fuck being an MC? Plus, there are plenty of other rappers who are better lyricist than Lil’ Wayne. What about Lupe, Common, & Andre 3k to name a few. Birdman you officially have this years award for retard of the year.
October 19th, 2009 at 6:01 pm
ohhh i see what he’s doing. he’s got an album dropping soon or something right?? he’s following that 50/Game/Jimmy/Cam’ron marketing plan

BIRDMAN, ALL THAT MONEY MY MY FRIEND YET YOUR THE MOST IGNORANT OF ALL…..NO WAY YM MAKES MORE THAN JAY HAHAHAHA
October 19th, 2009 at 7:41 pm
Birdman has absolutely no right to say who is where in the game or talk about who is making the most money…does he realize Jay made $135 million last year…?!!
October 19th, 2009 at 8:24 pm
he shouldve neva bought up the money!!! Wayne dont even got T.I. money, come on Baby lay off the drugs!!! Baby not even touching the old Master P, didnt P make forbes a couple years in his hay day, at one time he was at like 300 million. Baby is a great flawsser! he didnt mean that shit, damn the interviewer shouldve Kanye’d Baby!!!
October 19th, 2009 at 8:47 pm
LMAO I don’t even know where to start…..
October 19th, 2009 at 8:58 pm
first off im just gonna ignore that shit about nobody fucking with Wayne lyrically. Cuz that’s TOOO easy! Clearly he doesn’t know jay is worth half a fucking billion! N signed record deal worth more than they’ll ever see. N how you gonna compare how many records your ENTIRE RECORD LABEL sold(Which is NOT true) to what one man has sold?(Jay-Z STILL wins there) Niggas facts bout as fake as a GameCast! Fuck outta here with THAT shit.

This is stupid, I expect Baby to say boyfriend is better than Jay Z but he totally screwed up when he said F*#k all that rap s#*t, f*#k Baby. He shouldn’t be in the game if he cant respect the art.
October 20th, 2009 at 2:56 am
honestly, what’s all this shit about he’s my son, he’s my father… kissing eachother on the lips – man, i don’t even kiss my REAL parents on the lips, let alone another grown man that mentored me and brought me through to a better way of life, that he now calls his father. wayne is mediocre at best. the only dope artist on YM is drake and i’m still clueless why he signed with them. He’d make buku bucks on any label, so why not sign with a respectable one?
October 20th, 2009 at 3:35 am
Clearly Birdshit has never checked out the Forbes lists of the past few years and noticed Jay-Z in the top 3 every year and himself and Wayne no where near the top 10, not that it matters of course
October 20th, 2009 at 6:39 am
what baby ever done to be even allowed to speak on rap..he says the same shit all the time..he got money…So what?
Baby get off wayne’s lips for a second, maybe you’ll realise that your so called son is not the only dope rapper in the game.
October 20th, 2009 at 8:30 am
Ludacris, Nas, Jay-Z – I Do It For Hip Hop
Clealy Birdman does it for the complete opposite reason
He has no respect for the art and is solely in it for the money, sellin out media whore mother fucker
October 20th, 2009 at 8:53 am
look i ain’t a Weezy fan, when he first came out back in the hot boy days his shit was hot garbage..a couple bars into his verse i was changing the station…he’s definitley improved his flow…but all he do is punchlines and say off the wall shit…no michael…. but thats it… he ain’t SAYING nothing…the dude’s like a rap comedian wit a Pac work ethic cause of all his features…he ain’t no GOAT, he’s got no classic albums, just record sales, and no quotables either, i don’t hear niggas reciting his verses anywhere..Hail Mary, Only God Can Judge Me, Hypnotized, Long Kiss Goodnight etc…no Wayne song is touching those…period….and fuck the niggas that killed the 2 GREATS making a space for Baby’s weak man kissing ass to get in the game….smh
October 20th, 2009 at 10:45 am
I was too through when he said “F@*# all that rap sh@t…”
Really Baby? Really? “F&*# all that rap sh#t…”?
It’s no wonder you and Cash Money are soooooo irrelevant…GTFOH…

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The realist shit you ever wrote!
October 20th, 2009 at 11:51 am
Wayne may not be #1 but I will say that this past year Jay hasn’t been #1 either
Jay was straight up getting murked on all his bp3 features
October 20th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
true…….but even the Jay verses getting murked are better than all of Wayne’s best shit…that dude’s rank number should be two digits….
October 20th, 2009 at 3:39 pm
Birdman is Smoking Big CRACK ROCKS Huge Ones
October 20th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
Seriously! Come the fuck on! How high can u get, this dude clearly hasn’t kicked that dog food, just as bad as B.G. Crying for that high before he performs, some thing’s u don’t say, like have some self respect, like fame Hov is @ the billion mark, so really what u happy that syrup boy sold on Carter 3, that’s B.S. Dude first, second & third albums separately sold more, so let’s not include the rest, or more records sold, plus wayne only embraces his birth name because of that man, so when it’s said & done he wants 2 be him, not like his daddy,,lmao,,please do like the rest apologize 4 that statement, matter of fact he has more money then u(birdman/chicken-head), & Wayne suppose to be stunting like his daddy.

October 20th, 2009 at 7:43 pm
Y b e, have u really heard the album, I mean yeah, nit 2 be a hater, Kanye verse on Run this town was hot, but on Hater, Jay goes in “my hustle so russel, I streatch work yoga, u know I get down dog alroka, I use 2 knock pounds off” I mean I’m from the streets, that my man is straight fire, and on no other song does anybody come close, let’s point out Kanye was on that track,consistency that’s the key word!

REMINDER (BLUEPRINT 3)
What the hell have y’all done
… to even have an opinion on what I’ve been doin
What the hell have y’all won?
… Only thing you can identify with is losing
Ten #1 albums in a row, who better than me?
Only The Beatles, nobody ahead of me
I crush Elvis and his +Blue Suede Shoes+
Made the Rolling Stones seem sweet as Kool-Aid too
’96, ’97, ’98, ’99
2000, 2001 and beyond
Oh-two, oh-three, oh-four, oh-five
Oh-six and seven, oh-eight, oh-nine
Back-to-back, double plat’, I did what you won’t
Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t
Ain’t nothin changed for, me ‘cept the year it is
I think I have to send you a reminder, here it is
October 29th, 2009 at 7:05 pm

HUNNY! go somewhere witcho wifey and sip martini’s
October 31st, 2009 at 12:15 pm
All these people saying Jay -Z is GOD and shit.
Jay-Z was never lyrically, he steals everyones shit.
He has made money selling other’s rhymes, not his own, He is not an establishment of HIP HOP.
Even Nas exploited his ass back in the day.
Thats why he befriended NAS.
Jay-Z even stole swagga of the guy he rapped Jaz-O
And he even dissed Jaz-O, how the hell you going to diss your mentor and the One you got your name from.
FUCK GAY-Z
Nothing but a camel spitting other’s lyrics
Rakim, BIG, TUPAC, Big daddy Kane, Big L,
Lil Wayne is wack as fuck now. Go back to The Carter I and before.
Shit was cool. Birdman has always been shitty.
